Has to be seen to be believed:
NRA still hasn’t said a word about Philando Castile. Apparently, all guns don’t matter, and neither do all lives.
Remarkably, they release this ad on the same day Quinnipiac comes out with this polling data on guns:
American voters support 94 - 5 percent, including 92 - 8 percent among voters in households where there is a gun, background checks for all gun buyers. Support is over 90 percent in every listed group.
It's too easy to buy a gun in the U.S. today, 57 percent of voters say, while 6 percent say it's too difficult and 32 percent say it's about right.
If more people carried guns, the U.S. would be less safe, 57 percent of voters say, while 35 percent say the nation would be safer.
American voters say 79 - 17 percent that the way people talk about politics in the U.S. today contributes to violence. This belief is strongly held among all listed groups.
The recent shooting of a U.S. Congressman and several other people in Virginia will have no impact on how people talk about politics, 53 percent of voters say, while 11 percent say it will have a positive impact and 31 percent say it will have a negative impact.
When will Congress grow a spine and give us what most Americans want, sensible gun control.
